Ursa Minor is new to the store. Founded in 2009, it’s all handmade in Montreal by Elizabeth Hudson. With a graphic sensibility and a mystic touch, Hudson weaves a restrained palette of shadowy black, midnight blue, and bone white into a minimalist meditation on natural balance. She plays with contrast in textures as well, blending loose-weave linen and cotton with sinuous silk and tencel. Roomy geometric shapes mix casual wearability with artful refinement, and details like kimono sleeves, twisted straps, and tie-off shirttails suggest an origami-like creativity with forms that respects the simplicity of the essential design and the integrity of the materials. In other words, these clothes are beautiful! We think you’ll love them.

Could this week BE any better? It has already been jam-packed with new accessories, today’s treasures coming all the way from west coast designer Erin Templeton. Additional styles are available in store – including the cutest little card cases and change purses, and her super practical BYOB bag in black. We definitely recommend coming to see these beautiful hand-crafted pieces in person.

Small Tote in Whiskey, $275.

TGIF Short Bag, $135. (ours are in recycled black and brown)

Time for a Change Buffalo & Elk Wallet, Medium $39, Large $48. (both of ours are in Tobacco)

Our sugar highs have faded, and our roses are wilting. Did you get what you wanted this Valentines Day? If that answer was a big fat ‘NO!’ then clear the tissues out of your lap and come down to see us. As promised, we have even more Old Weston to show you! Surely these goodies can wake you from your candy comas.

First off, Happy Valentines Day everyone! We hope you are currently stuffing your faces with discount chocolate and sugary treats! For you last minute shoppers (no judgement), you’re in luck! We just got in some new goodies from Old Weston! Here are a few of the items, with the rest to follow tomorrow! What better way to say ‘I love you’ than with a screw? (We’re sorry.)

It’s coming, whether you (or we) like it, or not. And while it may seem easier to just set your alarm to 12am February 15th and sleep through the entire wretched holiday, we here at Robber think you should just suck it up. Embrace a day full of Hallmark, doilies and cupcakes. Let go of the painful memory of your grade school crush ‘forgetting’ to put a card in your cubby, and look cute in these outfits:

For the girl who has endured papercuts and glitter-stained fingertips since New Years, patiently awaiting her favourite day of the year.
